Atelier 312 Kunstklassen & Workshops Atelier 312 Kunstklassen & Workshops

At Atelier 312, children get to experience the joy and benefits of art making, whilst developing emotionally, socially and academically.

As a Swiss trained Creative Art Therapist and Kindergarten Teacher I run the atelier program in German and offer art-infused after school programs, weekends workshops, individual art enrichment classes and art camps.

AfterSchool Art Club:

During our after school Art Club classes from Wednesdays to Fridays (3.30-5.30pm) children get to indulge in the pleasures of art making. Their interest and motivation are the starting point for in-depth explorations into drawing, painting, crafting and sculpting. Whilst working creatively, the children get to expand their artistic skills and knowledge, learn new techniques and experiment with a variety of interesting materials. The painting style “Ausdrucksmalen” that is taught in the atelier encourages authentic expression, focusses on the creative process and removes result pressure.

Weekend workshops:

Looking for fun and engaging weekend activities for your children? Drop by at Atelier 312 for a Saturday morning workshop.

During 90 minutes sessions our little artists find a sanctuary to explore their creativity and expand their artistic skills. Artworks by influential artists are examined, new materials discovered, engaging techniques introduced, and individualized art projects planned and realized. The expressive painting style (Ausdrucksmalen) is an important part of the weekend workshops. In small group settings, on a drop-in basis, our artists discover their creative talents, whilst being immersed in German language and culture.

Saturday, 10.00am – 11.30am

Saturday, 12.00pm – 13.30pm

Individual art enrichment classes for children with special needs:

Art enrichment classes are conceptualized for students with diverse abilities, needs and interests. During these one-on-one art sessions our students pursue their social, emotional, and academic goals. The artistic focus of the class and the material choice is tailored to the student’s needs, interests and/or artistic ambitions. Individual art enrichment classes usually run for 4-6 month or until developmental goals are reached and/or emotional stress is resolved.

Art camps:

During school holidays Atelier 312 offers project based art camps. During 5 consecutive days children delve into a creative process and get to understand a material and its qualities in greater depth. Art camps offer the opportunity to realize more complex projects, which ignite children’s ambition, motivation and fantasy. The project focus changes for each art camp. Please enquire at KinderHaus administration for more information.
